Either a city bike or a sturdy road bike is good. Even a yard sale 3 speed internal gear bike can work. Look for aluminum rims for reduced weight and better wet braking. Gearing will depend on hills and traffic signals. My city bike is a triple crank Jamis Arragon with aluminum frame. My Huffy 3 spd has a 40T chain ring and a 19T rear gear: it is great in traffic. Lots of great books are in the library.
